I've built a working stdenv based on this, but I think this is a good starting point to get it merged.

Once this is in we should be able to get a tarball from hydra.

I'm marking this draft until I enumerate the package changes required for it to build.

Build with:

nix build -f pkgs/top-level/release-cross.nix bootstrapTools.x86_64-pc-cygwin.unpack

Dependencies:
